Calaveras Sheriff’s detectives are investigating a fatal shooting that happened last night in Jenny Lind. According to Sergeant Anthony Eberhardt, deputies were sent a few minutes before midnight to the Calaveras Consolidated Fire Station in Jenny Lind for a gunshot victim who had been transported there by a witness to the shooting. They arrived to find a 31 year old man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to his lower abdomen. He died at the scene. Detectives are now working to secure a search warrant to a home on the 9000 block of Scenic Valley Drive in Jenny Lind. That’s where 36 year old Jason Robert William McVey was arrested for being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. The victim’s identity is being withheld at this time pending notification to his next of kin. The Sheriff’s Office will release more information later.
